1984 Television Report on GoBots and Transformers
Even though this 1984 television report on Transformers toys is a lot of fun to watch, it’s the backgrounds behind the kids and reporter that will really get you wishing that you could go shopping in this store. I snapped a screenshot of one particularly impressive set of toys in the background: Look at all of those Kenner Super Powers Batman action figures!
The news report doesn’t get all that discriminating in which transformable robot toys it features. In addition to GoBots and Transformers we also get to see Robo Tron, Convertables, and Convert-A-Bots toys packaged and ready for sale. I’ll take one of each, please.
Educational indeed! 🙂
Wow, look at that full rack of Robo Tron toys! Seeing the also-rans takes me back to that era so much, especially as they have no modern counterpart.
I also didn’t realize Transformers started showing up in 1983. I thought it was 1984.
@Kevin – It was a typo on my part. 1984 is the correct date. Fixed!
Those Batman figures. So many… so minty. I’m dying. I can’t take it.
